I'm not sure but maybe it's because that's the hours when people in the 16th to 19th centuries snuck into graveyards to steal bodies for "doctors" to study and experiment on?

Common myth states that people would stay in the graveyard at night listening for people who had accidentally been buried alive. Actually, it came about in the sixteenth century, and had nothing to do with graveyards. It was used to describe the desolation and lonliness that go along with working (usually alone) at night.

The witching hour starts at midnight. This is said to be when the dead rise. So..... graveyard shift.
